Please do not discuss (or hint at) specific projects that you may or may not be volunteering to mentor (I don't think that any lines have been crossed, this is just a reminder). 

The short version is that it would be very handy if everybody could just volunteer to mentor those student projects that fit with their own goals (in whatever form those goals take). Please just do that. I don't believe that any special coordination is required.

As said for me it is not the problem I have a second Eclipse 4diac commiter who is registered as mentor and would like to support me. For me the question is
more how to handle it.

The good folks at Google will likely make us demonstrate that a mentor can handle more than two projects, so if you intend to volunteer for more than two, please send us a note with some motivation for your choice and a few words about how you intend to balance mentoring responsibilities.
